Valencia is the world's most important orange variety. It originated in either Spain or Portugal and was introduced to Florida in 1870. A major variety in Florida, California, South Africa and Australia, Valencia grows well, is easy to cultivate and very productive. Importantly, it is a late variety and keeps well on the tree, which enables picking until late spring, or even early summer. This prolongs the season and increases productivity.

Patchouli is grown in India and China but the bulk of the oil traded comes from Indonesia. The production is in the hands of numerous small farmers for whom it is often a secondary crop and thus a separate source of income.They can distill the herb and keep some small stock of oil as a form of saving. They sell to collectors all through the year depending on their need for cash. The dark oil is becoming rarer as the old iron drums and pipes used as distillation equipment are gradually being replaced by steel, which produce a light coloured oil.

Mentha piperita is an important crop in the northern part of the USA but it is also widely grown in the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh, India.

The cultivation of mentha arvensis is an important cash crop for thousands of farmers in Uttar Pradesh. A crude essential oil is produced in basic field distillation units and then later sold to collectors for further distilling in larger local factories. This oil is the starting material for the manufacture of natural menthol. Ninety percent of the global production is located in India. Crude mentha arvensis is a commodity traded on the MCX (Multi Commodity Exchange) in Delhi and can be prone to much speculation.

Rosmarinus officinalis is grown around the Mediterranean coastline. Its name is derived from the Latin meaning "dew of the sea," as it is said that in many locations the only water it needs to live is the humidity in the air carried from the sea. For the best quality oil, only the fresh flowering tops should be distilled but some producers use the whole plant, thus yielding a lower grade oil.
